    I've never done this, but wouldn't you do the following:


    Lipo1 red to ESC red
    Lipo1 black to Lipo2 red
    Lipo2 black to Lipo3 red
    Lipo3 black to ESC black

    ?

              Use 5.5mm bullet connectors all the way through. Don't hard wire! That way if you have one of the three packs go bad, you can just unplug it and plug in a new one!

                Thanks, Yes, 5.5 is all I run.

                Okay...maybe not the 9Xl but the 12 should do it and turn a decent prop.
